Each year, the GAP Museum invites GAP members to submit cut paper art that fits a theme. "What's Cooking?" is the 2018-2019 exhibit title and the museum is currently displaying 23 works related to this theme until April 2018.

Art work for GAP Museum exhibitions is contributed by international members, as well as those living in the United States. There are often a few sales and an artist's commission is 70%, with the remaining 30% split between GAP and Laurel Arts. If the work does not sell, it is returned to the artist who is committed to pay reimbursement or to provide a pre-paid return label.

The Guild is a tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The operation of the Guild of American Papercutters is accomplished entirely by volunteers, with no member or officer receiving any payment for their work.
